Minnesota homestead exemption

  • Minnesota's homestead market value exclusion takes 40% off a homestead worth $95,000 or less; from $95,000 to $517,200 the exclusion is $38,000 minus 9% of the value over $95,000, and at $517,200 or more there is none.
  • Homesteads are classed at 1% of the first $500,000 of market value and 1.25% of value above that.

This is the property tax homestead exemption, not the homestead exemption that protects a home from creditors in bankruptcy.

Minnesota property tax questions

How much is property tax in Minnesota?

Minnesota's effective property tax rate is 0.999%: owner-occupiers paid a median $3,357 a year on homes with a median value of $329,300. On a $300,000 home, that rate comes to $2,997.00 a year.

Does Minnesota have a homestead exemption?

Minnesota's homestead market value exclusion takes 40% off a homestead worth $95,000 or less; from $95,000 to $517,200 the exclusion is $38,000 minus 9% of the value over $95,000, and at $517,200 or more there is none. The calculator does not subtract it: the rates already reflect the exemptions owners received.

Why might a Minnesota tax bill differ from this estimate?

The rate is what owner-occupiers in Minnesota paid on average in 2020 through 2024, as a share of their homes' value. An actual bill depends on the home's assessed value, the levies where it sits and the exemptions its owner claims.

What the calculator leaves out

  • The rate is the total real estate tax owner-occupiers reported paying divided by the total value they reported for their homes, not a tax rate set by law.
  • The rate already reflects the exemptions, caps and credits typical owner-occupiers received, so the calculator does not subtract a homestead exemption again.
  • An actual bill depends on the home's assessed value, the levies where it sits and the exemptions its owner claims.
  • Survey estimates for small counties have wide margins of error.

Rates and medians are American Community Survey 2020-2024 5-year estimates: taxes owners paid in those years, not 2026 bills.
